Motion made that the report of the
court house committee be adopted
Carried
The committee appointed by the last
board to settle with the County Treas
urer and County Clerk, presented the
following report
To THE HONORABLE, TIE BoABD OF
WOOD COUNTY,
The committee appointed to settle the
accounts of the County Treasurer and
County Clerk, for 1887, would respect
fully submit the following as our report
of such settlement, towit:-
We have caused the books of Henry
Kuntz, County Treasurer, to be carefully
inspected; have examined all receipts
and charges, and have listed and enter
ed the same on books herewith fled in
County Clerks office.
We have listed all certificates in his
office, and made record of all receipts
of expenditure, charging him with all
delinquent taxes, and all monies rcceiv
ed by him from all other sou rces. we
have compared the delinquent tax rolls
with the sales books, and find them
correct, and for more detailed report
of the same, see exhibits A. B and G,
herewith attached and made part of
this our report. Having found the bal
ances on hand, and .amount of tax GER
tifcates in his hands, we have entered
said balances for reference in next set
Element.
We have also examined all accounts
in the County Clerks offices, checking
the books with the vouchers produced,
and found the Clerks report to be cor
rect. (No. IT,
/, We futher find that in taking the
amount of certificates charged Jan. 1st,
1909, St1ld Illlu WILL oil OCI
Gates received since, that there are
more in the office than he is accountable
for. This we think is owing to the
fact that the certificates upon which
deeds are taken for the county have not
been properly charged to the officer at
the commencement We have tried to
remedy this by making a separate
charge of that account, and having the
Clerk account for he same separately,
and in order to do so, we made the list
of deed certificates separate, and find
the amount $1997.7S.
And the amount of certificates listed
and charged to VIM. Hooper, Jan. LIST,
1887, to be $19172.99.
We further find that there is aside
from this amount, in certificates over 15
years old, the sum of $309.06.
And illegal certificates, $685.. II.
Old certificates not cancelled, S59S.37.
These certificates we recommend
should be in some way disposed of, we
think should be cancelled on the books,
and charged back to the proper towns.
We have found in settlement with the
County Clerk that his report is correct,
and have herewith made the same a
part of this our report. We have also
compared the county orders and jurors
certificates paid by the County Treasur-
er with the stubs and record books, and
find them correct, and have cancelled
the same.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
Dated April 30th, 1887.
